Rabun County Still Experiencing Severe Drought Conditions

Rabun County, and a majority of Northeast Georgia, continue to see severe drought conditions.

There are areas of our region that are experiencing extreme drought, those counties are Banks, Franklin, Hart, Madison, and Elbert County. Overall, about half of the state of Georgia, the northern half for the most part is in some sort of dry or drought conditions. That is around the same as last week’s Drought Monitor report.

Even though Rabun County continues to see severe drought conditions, we have seen the most rainfall over the last week.
